Or were we running Denver style running plays against the Giants? All the linemen were moving quicker.

We were running a mixture of everything; Zone blocking, the counter gap, fullback leads up the middle.

Time is of the essense with this team.....they are going to click pretty soon so we should all stay tuned. Probably won't happen again this week, but I can forsee the final 4 games as W's.

Exactly. The counter and the style of running it is part of cannot work in this league by itself is what I think both Joe and everyone else now realizes given the increased speed and athletic abilities of LBs. Theres always at least one who can get enough penetration to disrupt the play. I think mixing it up and keeping them on the their toes and playing slow is the way Joe has decided to go. At least I hope.

Against that sorry-assed remnant of a defensive line, the Skins could have run a single wing offense and made it work.
